    I have been a patient of Dr Buchek for more than 30 years. I lived 45 minutes away and she is worth the ride. She is thorough in her exam, makes informed suggestions and understands my complete medical history.

    Dr Bucheck is the best physician that I've had in my 78 years of experience. She's very caring and takes the time to explain in layman's terms what is happening and why she's chosen the course of action we'll proceed on. If I have questions, she takes the time to answer them all. She's available when I need her. She understands my family situation. I always feel that she's heard what I've said; I'm an individual and not just another patient passing through the office. It will be hard to replace her when she decides to retire which I hope is not soon.

    Dr. Buchek is fantastic doctor! I've been seeing her many years. She's compassionate, thorough, and knowledgeable. She spends the time that's needed, though it sometimes makes her run late, which is ok because she's doing right by her patients!

    Listens to me. Explains things very well. Quick to refer me to experts, as appropriate, ensuring we deal with serious issues early (e.g. my cancer).
